Love to see @nutritionorg grants to support attendance for attendees who have family support responsibilities-up to $750. In the thread below, you can see our pub which demonstrates how beneficial these grants are for attendees and a method to decrease #genderinquites in STEMM.
Our new paper is out on in @nutritionorg where we implemented a family support grant to subsidize caregiving needs in order to attend a professional society conference (up to $750).
A thread on what we found and why other professional societies should implement as well. #equity

Excited about my @60Minutes debut about the complexities of #obesity. Let’s stop blaming @MassGeneralNews @MGHMedicine @MassGenBrigham @mghfc @harvardmed @Harvard @ObesitySociety @ObesityAction @ConscienHealth @HarvardCPL @MonganInstitute @HarvardNORC @MGH_RI @AmerMedicalAssn – at Boston, MA
